Evo 8 turbo upgrade

I was thinking about upgrade my evo 8 turbo. Any recommendations? thinking about upgrade to evo 9 turbo. I'm not sure how many evo 9 turbo version out there. I'm not looking for a major turbo upgrade that I have go get it tuned. Thank you.

you should really retune the car if you change the turbo. If it doesn't get tuned you should at least do some data logging to ensure everything is "safe"...

When I went from an 8 to a 9 turbo, I had to pull a decent amount of WGDC because the car gained a few lbs of boost, and I had to add some fuel to compensate for the increased airflow.
